SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Introduction

    Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA provides that a registrant of a pesticide 
product may at any time request that any of its pesticide registrations 
be amended to delete one or more uses. The Act further provides that, 
before acting on the request, EPA must publish a notice of receipt of 
any such request in the Federal Register. Thereafter, the Administrator 
may approve such a request.

II. Intent to Delete Uses

    This notice announces receipt by the Agency of applications from 
registrants to delete uses in the 14 pesticide registrations listed in 
the following Table 1. These registrations are listed by registration 
number, product names and the specific uses deleted. Users of these 
products who desire continued use on crops or sites being deleted 
should contact the applicable registrant before May 10, 1994, to 
discuss withdrawal of the applications for amendment. This 90-day 
period will also permit interested members of the public to intercede 
with registrants prior to the Agency approval of the deletion.
